John loved holding hands, eating his favorite snack Cheeseballs, and drinking his coffee. His favorite food was pasta and chicken nuggets.

John’s laughter was contagious and he lit up every room he was in. He had a very boisterous spirit that will never be forgotten.

John brought much joy to everyone in his 66 years.  John also loved when his caregivers would sing the song “You are My Sunshine” because it held a very special place in his heart as his Mom would always sing it to him.
